So this lady as the head of an agency can unilaterally forgive loans but President of the United States Joe Biden can't forgive, or even lower monthly payments without congressional authority?

Current Congress will just rubber stamp Trump if someone suggests it is needed.

I'd actually be for this if lots of teenagers who don't actually plan to do shit as part of ICE sign up to try to get free from student loans.

"Time to oppress minorities!"

"Nah, washing my hair. Thanks for the student loan clearance."

So fucking disturbing.

Why even go to college when you go right into a career where you can beat the shit out of brown people? No forgiveness necessary (for student loans, anyway)

Eh, that not quite as bad as most people here will think. Loan forgiveness for certain jobs, especially with the government, has been a thing for a long time. There's definitely something detestable about the lowering ages explicitly to get younger recruits to bolster the numbers, but overall, not that different from what the military does with their high school & college recruitment drives.

Trump has a pretty long history of just not paying his bills. Why would people even trust this?

Or just something like "after 5 years of service we'll wipe your student loans" and then you'll get fired after 4 years and 11 months.

There is no such thing as a free lunch from the government.

They'll offer this, and then they'll use it to hold you to 5 years of service, and then if your service isn't satisfactory, then you have to pay it back with interest.

Or, you know, you could just have your federal loans forgiven for working in the federal government 10 years like it was for many years.

Oh, what's that? They cut all the federal jobs? Never mind then.

It also means they're going to lower the bar for federal law enforcement (which as much as people love to hate on cops, the federal recruitment standards were pretty high). They'll allow in anyone happy to round up brown people or do Trump's bidding.

That assumes that Trump--or Vance should Trump be dead by then--willingly gives up all the power they're amassing.

Actually the new positions are only until 2026 if Dems get a majority in both houses.

I think this is stopping mature applicants.

Other considerations are

Travel without notice
Vastly increased risk of being attacked
Being tried for war crimes

Even the most reactionary know what the risks are.

But reports suggest the sky-high deportation quota, coupled with the administrations general inhumanity when it comes to the treatment of immigrants, has left morale within the agency plummeting. And while DHS Secretary Kristi Noem boasts about a recent surge in applications, related moves within ICE, including the agency reportedly forcibly poaching employees from across the federal government and other law enforcement agencies, appear to contradict those claims. The American Prospect reported on Wednesday, for example, that probationary Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) employeesthose with under a year of servicewere being reassigned to ICE or threatened with losing their jobs if they did not accept. A DHS spokesperson told the Prospect that the FEMA employees were being temporarily moved to work with ICE for 90 days, to assist with hiring and vetting, and claimed that the moves will NOT disrupt FEMAs critical operations.

What makes you think that? Afaik Obamna and Bideng funded ICE just plenty.

Certainly loved their walls and prison camps. Just didn't talk about them as much or as loudly.

So who were these 80k applicants for 10k positions if she's lowering the age? A bunch of geriatric magas?

If someone's joining ICE at 18-20 they're not going to college anyway so there's no loan to forgive. The idea of a bunch of armed teenage racists wearing masks and disappearing people sounds even worse. They're not going to be the brightest gen z has to offer.

You guys realize that if/when ICE is disbanded in a future administration the desperate, indoctrinated, trained, and armed young men who form the backbone of the organization are more or less going to end up similar to the Klan or Lost Causers in the late 19th century or some sort of Iraqi-style militant movement, right?
